A synthetic pentapeptide GHS-R1a agonist
Ipamorelin is a synthetic pentapeptide and growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHS-R1a) agonist. In preclinical investigations, it has been examined for interactions with the ghrelin-receptor pathway and for selectivity relative to ACTH, cortisol, and prolactin pathways.
What is Ipamorelin?
Ipamorelin was developed by scientists at Novo Nordisk in Denmark during the late 1990s. Researchers were investigating growth hormone secretagogues and sought a compound with a narrower receptor-interaction profile than earlier GHRPs such as GHRP-6, which had been associated with changes in cortisol levels and appetite-related signaling in preclinical work.
The Novo Nordisk team designed Ipamorelin as a pentapeptide targeting the ghrelin receptor (GHS-R1a). In their characterization work, published by Raun and colleagues in 1998, they reported GH release with minimal measured effects on ACTH, cortisol, or prolactin in the preclinical models examined.
Since that initial characterization, Ipamorelin has appeared in peer-reviewed preclinical publications examining GHS-R1a pharmacology, pharmacokinetic modeling, and skeletal endpoints in rodent models. This product is intended for research use only.
How should Ipamorelin be stored?
All of our products are manufactured using the Lyophilization (Freeze Drying) process, which ensures that our products remain 100% stable for shipping for up to 3-4 months.
Prepared samples must be stored in the fridge to maintain stability, and remain stable for up to 30 days when properly refrigerated.
